Assessment of a Baited Remote Underwater Video Method to Evaluate American Lobster (Homarus americanus) Response to Baits in Nature [PDF]
Fisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The American Lobster (Homarus americanus) is the target of an extensive fishery in the Northwest Atlantic, yet there is no systematic method for evaluating relative performance of baits for the fishery. We used Baited Remote Underwater Video (BRUV) to assess lobster attraction to commercial baits versus natural prey.

How Might Climate Change Affect American Lobsters? [PDF]
Frontiers for Young Minds, 2023 Climate change is likely to have a dramatic impact on many animals, including American lobsters (Homarus americanus). Lobsters are very sensitive to water temperature, and they will move to avoid water that is too warm or too cold. While this behavior has served them well for 1,000’s of years, as the oceans warm up, they might seek new habitats, which ...

Seasonal patterns of mercury bioaccumulation in lobsters (Homarus americanus) from Maine [PDF]
Academia BiologyMercury (Hg) pollutes marine ecosystems and accumulates in benthic species. This ecological case study investigated the temporal accumulation of Hg in American lobster (Homarus americanus; H. Milne Edwards, 1837) from coastal Maine (Casco Bay,

Sample purification and characterization of the α- and β-crustacyanin pigments from the American lobster for crystallographic and cryo-EM studies. [PDF]
Acta Crystallogr F Struct Biol CommunThe striking blue colour of the American lobster is caused by proteins that interact with the red pigment astaxanthin, causing its colour change. We have purified and characterized the pigments from the American lobster for crystallographic and cryo‐EM studies.The striking blue hue of live Homarus americanus, known as the American lobster, arises from ...

Integrated Environmental Assessment and Management, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract In the Lake Koocanusa‐Kootenai River system (Montana, USA and British Columbia, Canada), selenium (Se) contamination has become an international concern and is suspected to contribute to the observed burbot (Lota lota) population collapse. Due to our limited ability to sample burbot in Lake Koocanusa for monitoring studies, we used a reference
